Douglass Shoe Factory
Bring a little Marlborough home.
Die-Cut Sticker · White · 4 × 4 inches
Before heading out, pick up your notebook or smooth case, with this small view attached to something already in use. The Douglass shoe factory's roof tower and loading platform rise above workers and freight, giving Marlborough's manufacturing scene practical details to notice.
A circa-1910 postcard shows the Douglass shoe factory on Howe Street in Marlborough. Its roof tower, loading platform, workers and horse-drawn freight place the factory within a working neighborhood. The source records local manufacturing; it does not establish that the building used Assabet waterpower.
The factory belongs to Howe Street's working setting, keeping Marlborough's shoe manufacturing attached to a particular building and the activity around it. Use it on a suitable smooth cover or case, keeping the picture in sight as the item goes from desk to bag.
